"Your Highness has continued to search for people today?" Qin Yining lowered her head and threading a needle, and asked the people around her at will.

Ji Yun and Bingtang said in unison, "Yeah."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Ji Yun said again, "Today, I heard Tang Xiu say that Mr. Xie persuaded the lord to hold back for now, and don't let Uncle Zhongyi misunderstand that we are provocative, but the lord is unwilling to listen."

"Hu Zi also said the same thing. The lord is full of anger now, and he just wants to vent his anger for the princess. They found four before, killed two, and there are two left, but they can't find it. What the lord is annoyed about now is that These two people, didn't the lord say that when he came back yesterday, could those two be able to put their wings on and fly away?"

The two maids couldn't help laughing.

Qin Yining also laughed, "How can people put their wings on and fly away?"

"Of course not."

Qin Yining, the shopkeeper of Yinda, has learned how to hide people now. Even so many elite tiger guards haven't found it, so she came back to see Qiu Feishan, and she should really be grateful.

After sipping the needle tip on his temples, Qin Yining continued to do needlework, but suddenly thought of something, and the movements of his hands slowed down.

"You said that the sage arranged for Zhongyi Bo to be the magistrate, and the prince to be the imperial envoy to supervise the imperial mausoleum. The two of them are in Huichuan. Who is the elder?"

Ji Yun and Bingtang were stunned for a moment.

Bingtang analyzed, "Depending on the title, it is natural that the prince is the greatest, and depending on the official position, it is also the prince who is a relatively large imperial envoy."

Qin Yining said, "That's the matter of repairing the tomb of the emperor. But now the saint has not allocated money, and the matter of the emperor's tomb has not yet started, so regardless of the matter of repairing the tomb of the emperor, in Huichuan County, the management The magistrate should be the magistrate in the yamen's affairs."

"You're right." Ji Yun nodded, "What did the princess think of?"

Qin Yining shook his head and said, "I was thinking that the lord sent more than 100 elite tiger guards and guards of the palace to search the city, just like he wanted to search his own back garden, it took a day or two, so many days have passed. , I am afraid that the troubles have long been heard. Lu Heng was born in a noble family, and has been a proud man since he was a child.

Bingtang and Jiyun shook their heads together.

Naturally it cannot.

Lu Heng had an innate arrogance on his body. That arrogance had nothing to do with what he wore and what he did. Even when he was down, he seemed completely different from ordinary people.

Qin Yining rubbed his brows and said, "So in my opinion, Uncle Zhongyi will definitely do something against the prince, but it is impossible for him to win by force. Now that he has been arranged by the sage to leave the capital, he obviously has lost his holy heart. It is impossible for him to brush the tiger's beard at this time, so the way to impeach the prince cannot be immediate."

Ji Yun and Bingtang listened quietly.

Qin Yining thought about it for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion, "So I think Uncle Zhongyi should suppress the prince financially."

"Princess, what do you mean?"

"The Lu family's family is huge and has a complicated network of connections, and the wealth we have is unimaginable. When the Qin family first moved into the capital, my father had to consider avoiding its edge, so I think the children of the aristocratic family were agitated and used money Hitting people should be the most common method."

"But we don't have much money to ask for from the Lu family right now."

"What I mean is, isn't the prince arranging people to hunt down right now? The soldiers and horses that are being hunted are naturally thorns in the eyes of Uncle Zhongyi, so we only need to monopolize the food of the whole city, so that these people have nothing to eat. They have nothing to eat. Naturally, I don't have the strength to search for it, and at the same time, I can give the prince a disgrace."

Ji Yun and Bingtang became a little nervous when they heard the words, "Then what should we do?"

Qin Yining put down the work on his hands, stood up and massaged his fingers, hesitatingly said: "Actually, it's easy to solve. Ji Yun."

Ji Yun immediately responded and walked to Qin Yining's side, Qin Yining whispered, "Go to the shopkeeper Yin Da and say..."

Ji Yun nodded when he heard the words, "Yes, the servant knows. It's just that this is your guess. What if your preparations don't come in handy?"

"It's okay, look at the weather, how long has it been raining? It hasn't stopped since we left the capital. It will come in handy sooner or later."

Ji Yun heard the words and nodded solemnly.

Just when Ji Yun went out to help Qin Yining "buy" again, in the Lu Mansion, Lu Heng was standing by the window with his hands down like water.

"Uncle, today the city is still full of turmoil, and Prince Zhongshun's troops are searching everywhere, and they have the tendency to dig three feet into the ground. Our people have discussed with each other several times, but the group of people in the palace are murderous, and they call us at a glance. People are panicking.”

Lu Heng shook his head, with a mocking smile on his lips, "From a mud-legged background, how much self-discipline do you expect him to have? With a few soldiers, he is too arrogant. Since he refuses to listen to my advice, Then don't blame me for sweeping away his majesty."

"Uncle, what do you mean?"

"Let the people of our family go out to all the local shops, and are not allowed to provide food for the white people in the palace. I want to see, no matter how powerful he is, can he bring in soldiers who can't get enough to eat!"

"Yes, uncle."

The subordinates backed away excitedly.

Lu Heng rubbed his hands together involuntarily.

He wanted to see how the soldiers would make trouble when they were hungry. At that time, Pang Zhixi was so anxious that she had nothing to do. She could also let Qin Yining take a good look at what kind of reckless husband she married.

At the beginning of June, the rain still did not stop, and the entire Huichuan County seemed to be forgotten and thrown into the ditch, and everywhere was wet and muddy.

It is precisely because of this that the crops are not growing well, and ordinary people are sad and bleak, and they begin to save food. The price of grain in the grain store and rice shop began to rise, and it was more than twice as high as usual.

The people were hesitant to eat food.

The palace soldiers of the palace could not eat enough food.

It's just that Hu Zi, who was in charge of buying today, didn't buy anything.

"My lord, the rice shops in the city are too deceiving. I can clearly see that they have food in reserve, but they do not sell it. The small part that they are willing to sell is still mixed with sand, and the price is still twice as high as before. I reasoned with them, arguing. Almost got into a fight."

Hu Zi said angrily, "And I've gone to several grain stores, we need a lot of money, I think this business is easy to talk about, but I didn't expect that no matter how many stores I went to, the result would be the same, even if the palace was revealed. Even some shopkeepers yelled at me, saying that if those high-priced grains mixed with sand are unwilling to eat, they will have to eat soil in the future. Whether they sell it depends on the mood, can we still grab it hard ?"
